In today’s episode, Jen talks with Impact Icon Jane Rohde, Founder, and Principal at JSR Associates, a healthcare and senior living design firm developing programming, planning, and care models that focus on the desired outcomes of residents, patients, staff, family, and visitors. Jane believes in a global, cultural shift toward de-institutionalized senior living facilities through research, advocacy, and humanistic approaches to care. She is a consummate professional, a voracious consumer of knowledge, and so incredibly kind.

Toward the end of the conversation, she talks about legacy and what it means to think about your own — the legacy you’ll leave. It’s a thoughtful, intriguing conversation and one we hope you enjoy. You can learn more about Jane’s work at www.jsrassociates.net.

In this episode, JSR Associates' Jane Rohde sits down with i+s Chief Content Director Robert Nieminen to discuss an innovative model for senior living communities that not only better caters to the needs of elderly populations but also brings at-risk youth into the picture to further break down barriers to community. In this lively conversation, you’ll discover not only how the Live Together model works, but be inspired and equipped to re-envision the way you think about how to design for senior living in the future.

Jane Rohde’s career in senior living architecture and design is based on a simple but often overlooked truth: What’s good for elders is also what’s good for everyone.

Our needs don’t change as we age, and Rohde joins “Elevate Eldercare” to challenge our idea of what senior living can and should look like – particularly, the notion that real answers to challenges in eldercare can be found by focusing on the living part of senior living.

As the founder of senior living design firm JSR Associates and Live Together – a non-profit focused on developing intergenerational communities that benefit both elders and young people classified as at risk – Rohde is a firm believer in the idea that environment, care, and quality of life are all connected. Listen in for some bold ideas that redefine the bedrock principles of senior living!
